Christmas Hazards

20th Dec 2016

Christmas, always a busy and chaotic time of year, has the potential for large quantities of food and presents to be left unattended. Curious pets, particularly dogs, may investigate and eat gifts, including non-edible ones left under the tree, food in the kitchen or chew on plants decorating the house.

TOXIC FOODS

Contact your vet for advice if your pet has eaten any of these foods:

Chocolate – never leave chocolate on or under the tree if there are pets in the home. This would include boxes of chocolates, chocolate advent calendars and chocolate yule logs.
